  • 5/5 Kashif Abdul Razzaq M. 1 year ago on Google
    MashaAllah a beautiful place where I feel the real spiritual energy in myself during visiting inside the Mazar. We start our travel by Taxi Shishan area near Grand Halic Hotel and it cost 43 tl. After reaching there, the thing amazed me that as compare to my country, Turkish officails made this place a complete Tourist Attraction for everyone. Because the surrounding of Mazar was covered by restaurants and beautiful shops, which are making this place more attractive for everyone. Fortunately we reached just before Namaz E Zuhar, that's why we were able to visit Inside the Tomb of Hazrat Abu Ayub Ansari Razi Allah Tala Anhu. As I noticed, the whole Mazar is ♿Accessibility-friendly by ramps to make easiness for the people with different abilities.

    Visited Istanbul & honoured to see the Grave of Hazrat Abu Ayub Ansari RA in oldest and historic graveyard of Istanbul. It's great blessing of Almighty Allah at me to prayed at the Grave & offered Juma Prayer in Ayup Sultan mosque of the mazar. Rush of visitors was there and mosque was full of worshippers at Juma prayer. Istanbul also has it's own history, beautifully decorated city crowded by visitors through out the year. Very disciplined metropolitan with disciplined residents. Salute to Tayyip Erdogan, hero of Muslim World, President of Turkey. Recommended all Muslim brothers to pay homage at the Mazar while visiting Istanbul.

    Tomb and Mosque of Abu Ayyub Ansari, a companion of the Prophet and famously known as his flag bearer. Very peaceful and spiritual location.

    The tomb of Ayub Ansari (رضي الله عنه) is at a convenient distance from Istanbul Sultan Ahmet. It is easy to get to by using bus 86V. Very clean and well serviced area. There is no ticket to visit and everyone is civilised and helpful. There is voluntary donation option and receipts are given. The Ayub masjid is also very impressive (especially) the dome. There are plenty of restaurants right outside so food is not an issue when visiting.

    Hazrat Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari’s grave is well preserved and is located within the Masjid compound. Easy to get using public transportation. An amazing place to reflect and pray in the Masjid.

    In the Sultan Eyup neighborhood in central Istanbul, there is the tomb of the companion Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari. His name is Khalid, from the Bani Najjar tribe, he was a close companion and standard-bearer of the Prophet Muhammad. Abu Ayyub was a supporter of early Islamic history, who supported Muhammad after the migration to Medina in 622. The tomb contains some prophetic relics, and it is decorated with wonderful Islamic decorations.

    Absolutely stunning masjid. Visited on a friday (jummah prayer time) so was quite busy but an hour after salah the rush had gone down. Ziyarah itself is beautiful, where you also get to do ziyarah of the blessed foot print of Muhammed PBUH. I could sit here for hours and not get bored. The peace here was something else

    For Muslim travelers and history enthusiasts alike, the Abu Ayyub al-Ansari Tomb is a must-visit destination in Istanbul. It offers a unique opportunity to connect with the rich Islamic heritage and deepen one's understanding of the early days of Islam. I left the tomb with a sense of spiritual upliftment and a greater appreciation for the historical legacy of this great companion. If you have the chance to visit Istanbul, I encourage you to include this remarkable site in your itinerary. It is a place that will leave a lasting impression on your heart and soul.

    Had an amazing time here. What I didn’t expect is that there would be a huge cemetery here as well and a market. One of the highlights from me recent trip to Istanbul

  • 5/5 M S. 11 months ago on Google
    Great place to visit. Religiously, it's a must. HAZARAT ABU AYUB ANSARI(R.A) tomb is the main attraction here along with alleged graves of other sahaba e rasool(P.B.U.H).The mosque next to it is extremely beautiful and historical. It's free to visit, but get closed for visitors for nearly an hour and a half for prayer,l during each prayer.
